I've been eagerly updating #macOS since 10.4 Tiger (which required buying a physical box of DVDs!) running betas whenever possible. Until Tahoe. I haven't touched it.
Apple has lost taste.
Not just the OS. It's Tim giving a golden turd bribe. Tasteless.

In Praise of RSS and Controlled Feeds of Information
The way we consume content on the internet is increasingly driven by walled-garden platforms and black-box feed algorithms. This shift is making our media diets miserable.
